Reef break
Injidup Carparks ‘Carparks’
Injidup · Yallingup
Easy to reach at the southern end of the Injidup stretch, with a solid, workable wave without the intensity of its neighbours.
Left-hand reef break
Three Bears ‘Baby, Mama & Papa’
Cape Naturaliste · Dunsborough
A run of reef peaks with clean, playful walls and several workable sections.
Beach break
Smiths Beach ‘Smiths’
Yallingup
One of the most consistent beach breaks in the region, with rippable waves across a wide range of swell and tide.
Right-hand reef break
Yallingup Main Break ‘Yalls’
Yallingup
A standout of the region. It peels down the reef with real power and shape, and draws surfers from across the South West when it's on.
Reef break
Huzzawouie ‘Huzzas’
Gracetown · Margaret River
Inside Cowaramup Bay, the playful middle ground between its heavier neighbours: punchy, forgiving and fun.
Left point break
South Point
Gracetown · Cowaramup Bay
A long, flowing left with drawn-out walls. Room to link turns and find your rhythm down the line.
Left and right reef break
Margaret River Main Break ‘Margies’
Surfers Point · Prevelly
The region's most famous wave. Alive and always shifting, and one of Australia's premier big-wave arenas on a big swell.
Beach break
Redgate Beach ‘Redgate’
Margaret River · Karridale
A powerful, no-frills beach break with punchy shorebreak peaks. Consistent, uncrowded and a local favourite.
Beach break
Boranup Beach ‘Boranup’
Margaret River · Karridale
Backed by the towering karri trees of Boranup Forest. Wild, exposed and rarely crowded, a proper off-the-beaten-track surf.

Beginner-intermediate through advanced. You should be comfortable in the ocean and able to paddle and catch your own waves, and your guide matches the break to the group and the forecast each day. If you'd like extra guidance, add lessons with qualified instructors. Unsure? Tell us about your surfing and we'll give you an honest assessment.
Is there any coaching?
Not as standard, which keeps your days free and the price lower. If you'd like some, add 1.5-hour lessons with qualified instructors or a day of one-on-one high-performance coaching.
Can I come on my own?
Definitely. Plenty of guests travel solo, and couples, friends and families join too. With a group of up to 10 sharing meals and film nights, you won't be on your own for long.
How do I get there?
Fly into Perth. Transfers from Perth Airport to the house are included within the set arrival and departure windows. Flights aren't included, but Salt Atlas can help you book through ATOL-protected partners.
Which month should I pick?
Autumn (March to May) has the most consistent conditions, with offshore winds. Summer (December to February) brings warmer water and smaller waves, good for building confidence. This year's confirmed trips leave on 20 October, 19 November and 13 December, and the December trip lines up with the start of summer. For 2027, tell us the month you'd like.
What else can I do there?
Optional extras include whale and dolphin watching, the Busselton Underwater Observatory, diving and snorkelling at the jetty or the HMAS Swan wreck, jet ski tours, a wildfood canoe tour, craft beer and winery tours, and fitness classes.
Do I need a visa or insurance?
Travel insurance is required. Visa requirements depend on your nationality, and arranging one is your responsibility.
